This is a headgum original.
Find it out, what's gone south
And drop trout for that chipmunk now
Smooth right finally finally there's a steam song that's as sexy as the show
Mmm, that's right. Yeah, I've always wanted to do like this kind of like I don't know this like sexy talk show
Where it's like late night and things are getting sort of hot
Yes, definitely, tuxedos and teddies
That's right, lounge singer vibes
Yeah and everyone's shirts are sort of either open or off and everyone's jacked and smells like perfume
Dirty martinis
Yes, it's really cold in the studio and everyone's sort of goose bumped out and hearted on
So everyone has an erection and a cold
And they have a cold and a flu like symptom on the day
But we've tested them all so everyone is sick but not with COVID
Right, that's cool
Remember getting just classic sick?
That was that old school
There used to be a sick that you could get, yeah, that wasn't dangerous
Now it's just like let's first make sure I don't have the disease and now that I don't I could sort of veg out with my wedge out
That's when you sort of sit down but your ass is hanging off a stair that's made out of velvet
Because you're in the hot lounge and it's sexy because you can tell it is because of the music
So that's the show idea, what do you think?
Is it a new show or it's just a vibe that you want for this show?
It's a vibe, it's a show, it's basically this show but like sexy
You could never be sexy
There's no fucking world
It doesn't matter how many martinis, how many lunches
Wow
One of your ideas to make it fucking hot was for everyone to have goose bumps
So yeah, I don't think you have sexy instincts
You wanted people to have a cold
You wanted them to be ill
I wanted their nose to run
You don't know how to throw a party, you don't know the first fucking thing about it
Okay, okay, well this is a good step one
And I guess thanks to Jake Morrill a 24 year old currently living in Brooklyn
Nice
You can plug his music on Spotify which you can search JoyCaptain, you'll be able to hear it
I love, love Brooklyn, respect for living in the goat city
Here's something funny, you guys played another theme of mine on episode 425
Coronavirus, which was the last episode before lockdown started
Wow
So at the beginning of lockdown we played it and at the end of lockdown we played it
Let's fucking go, it's over baby, we're having sexy shows, it's velvet, it's freezing
Everyone can't feel their toes
Yeah
Yeah
They're hot
Right
Yeah
I don't think you're ready to have the COVID is over party
Feels like it's you know low key never gonna end
Okay
So
Yeah
Can't really bookend it with one of your swagged out sexy velvet parties
I know you love to throw a velvet party
But
Foam, yeah
It's foam and it's velvet in a way
But you're gonna have to have FOMO because you're missing velvet
That's good, fear of missing out on foam
Yeah
I have
FOMO
That's right
I have foam, foam
Alright, sweet, this is If I Were You, I guess a normal podcast about advice
The only one on the internet hosted by us on the mirror
I'm liquid nice
Oh, you're back
Yeah
Yeah
Liquid nice never left
It looks like things are sort of tenuously hanging on by a thread over there
I see like two foam pads that you're sort of creating a TP over your mic
Hoping to God that it eliminates echo in your new studio at home
Yeah, this is actually the FOMO
I think it's, I don't think it's gonna work either
Because I can kind of hear an echo even as I'm talking directly to the foam
It's like, yeah, it's hard to simulate a full studio with just two little planks of foam
Yeah, well, I ordered, so I ordered three big 48 inch tall sound panels
Oh, wow
I'm gonna kind of hang
I'm a little sad because, you know, I basically have to ruin my office
I have to turn it into like a Twitch gamer looking setup studio
Yeah, you wanted like a nice classic 1920s hardwood desk and a typewriter
And instead you're gonna have like eight ring lights and a sound foam and a sort of dome and a Dell PC and a Hackintosh
And like five weird little tripods holding my mic, holding my light, holding a Joby
Mom, don't touch that, that's my USB dongle computer
Nine fucking dongles
There's pairs of headphones just crawling around under the desk looking for more outlets
So there's sparks, things are short circuiting
You can design, design all day, I put beautiful molding in this room
But at the end of the day I have to hammer it away and put up a fucking bass trap
That's what I'm gonna have to do
The life of a podcaster, you're sort of, it's the duality of you
It's like who you want to be and then what your job is
Yeah, exactly, I want to sit here with a typewriter and work on the next American novel
You want to be a cartographer
No, I have to have a cat six cable in here
And make sure that the ring light is sort of facing you in case we want to twitch our zoom meetings anytime soon
Yeah, there's like a place in this office where the desk makes sense and then there's a place where it needs to be for me to get light for my zoom meetings
And that's kind of sad
I'm gonna take a picture of us right now
Smile
Alright, got it
That was good
Yeah
It was fun, I look forward to hearing what your audio sounds like
And again, if there's a slight echo, just, I guess we apologize
Like what do you want me to say at this point
I'm living in a foam teepee, I'm doing everything I possibly can
Yeah, I wonder if the foam should be in front of you instead of on top
Does that change anything? I guess we can adjust that half time and see what happens
Yeah, we'll have to
Okay, questions from real people and trying to give them real answers as much as possible
That's the liquid nice way
Yeah, a guy in ice would never
Here's one about a picky partner from a lady
So we'll call her Penelope Picker
Penelope Picker and her picky partner writes
I've been listening since day one and I've never written in before
I even came to the show in New Haven and you guys gave me a piggyback ride
Dope, that was what we did with Allison
Fuck, that was awesome
I'm a 22-year-old female and have been with my boyfriend for five years, he's 24
What pisses me off the most about him is that he's the pickiest eater I've ever met
Most meals we order in, yet he refuses to try new cuisines
I've convinced him enough to try new restaurants but he reads the menu and makes us leave
Even if we order a pizza, he will only get sausage, if not plain
We don't even add peppers or onions
Is this a deal breaker? How annoyed would you guys be?
I cannot express how frustrating it is
I'm a huge food lover and will try slash very much enjoy pretty much anything
Thanks, love Penelope
Alright Penelope
I feel like, I became a very adventurous eater I think around when I was like 20, maybe a little younger than 24
So there's still hope, I feel like your palate does grow and change and expand
So hopefully he knows that it's something that bothers you and he's going to work on it
Yeah
And it sounds like it does a little bit
I'm kind of picky myself, not to such an extreme but there's certain foods that I know I don't like and I don't get them
I wouldn't necessarily cancel off a full cuisine though
Even the pickiest eaters I know, my friends that don't eat anything, it's like we're all going to get sushi
And Jesse's going to get chicken on rice
There's at least something for him
So he's never vetoed a full restaurant
He just doesn't try the raw fish and stuff like that
It feels like that's excessive, like if you want to try a new restaurant, your boyfriend has to go and get like the blandest thing on the menu
Yeah
You can always eat
But then it's sad because you can't share
Right
But I think that's kind of the trade off, it's like you love food, you can't make someone that is not an adventurous eater become that
All you can do is like be proudly independent on your own courses
Literally
Cause like courses like first course, second course, third course, etc, etc
Hold on, I can't breathe in the foam
I'm starting to get too light headed
Scared and hangry
Inhaled glue
No, I think that you just have to be like, I'm going to enjoy my food, you get rice or you eat before we go out
But I want rice
I mean there is a quiet shame in just being like, do you have, can I get this without sauce and do you just have plain rice
Like he has to ask for that stuff
You don't have to do it
Yeah
I feel like it's, I don't know, yeah you just got to just keep on doing you
What did you used to be picky about that you now added to your repertoire?
I mean when I was a kid I wouldn't eat anything, I never tried peanut butter until I was like 20
Peanut butter is like, usually it's like my kid will only eat peanut butter, you didn't even have that
And I fucking love peanut butter, I didn't have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich until I was 21 years old
And I had never had pasta, I had plain pasta, I didn't like tomato sauce
I could have it on pizza if there wasn't a lot and it was mostly cheese and bread
But I never had like tomato sauce and pasta, it was always like butter
And now I fucking, I love pasta, I love tomato sauce
Do you remember what changed, like what got you into it?
I think it was just like my parents never ever made me eat anything
And when I had like friends and I started like going out to meals and, you know, being around society
I was like, oh yes, I have to try this food
And I, they never made me try anything
For instance, I liked burgers but I didn't like meatballs, which doesn't make any sense
Cause that's just the shape difference
And I didn't like meatloaf and nobody was like, you have to try it, you'll like it
And I was just like, okay, yeah, you don't want meatballs, that's fine
Turns out I fucking love meatballs cause they're like tiny little hamburgers
You were like a fucking caveman eating out of the restaurant the first time
I was like, actually my mommy just says I can have crust without sauce and everyone around
She's like, what are you doing, what are you ordering?
I don't actually eat tomatoes or peanut butter
You have to do that now
Really?
I went to like
Hold on, I have to call my mom
She never made me eat any of this
Shit
What is this?
Tomato sauce and spaghetti
I went to dinner at my aunt's house and she was making Mexican
And she made tacos and all I would eat was cucumbers cut up into a hard shell taco
And I loved it and that was my dinner
And you were what, 20 years old?
That was last winter
Cucumbers and a taco
You think like the kid and you would eat the meat or chicken plain with rice, not a cucumber taco
No, I also used to, I would, this actually translated into a jacunamir a little bit
I used to like chicken nuggets from McDonald's, but I didn't like the middle
So I would just eat around the edges
And if the piece was too chickeny, I didn't want it
Basically just like the fucking skin, which is something that we made your character do
You used to eat chicken nuggets like fucking corn on the cob
Yeah, just eat it around the bone
Yeah, because you like fried chicken skin, but you didn't like the chicken part of it
Yeah, it was almost like, it was like pizza, I didn't like the crust
But it was like the middle was the crust of the chicken
It's kind of an incredibly survived really
And I've changed and now I love, there's like not really a food out there that I don't like
Not crazy about eggplant, but
I remember you having soup for the first time with my parents
That's right, yeah
My mom made soup and she's like, do you like this soup?
I've never really had soup and like that's when we knew each other, so you were like 26
She's like, what are you talking about?
You're like, yeah, I just, I don't think I've ever had soup
I had never had soup
Which is crazy because you grew up on the East Coast
You should have had soup more than anybody
It's true, when we had a big family and soup's kind of a big easy thing to make, but we never did that
Did your parents, I mean, did your other siblings also have weird dietary restrictions or was it just a you thing?
It was really just a me thing. Everyone else ate whatever was on the table and I would always get a special meal
Because I'm my mom's special boy
Like, everyone's gonna have chicken and pasta, but Jake's gonna have little dinosaur chicken wings and macaroni and cheese
I ate a lot of frozen food
All of my, it was like my mom would make dinner for everyone and then cook a sheet pan of frozen food for me
I can't believe that didn't piss your mom off
Imagine like you as an actual parent like with like five kids and they're all eating and then you have this one fucking snot nose
I was like, I want dinosaur nuggets
Throwing your wife's hard earned food off the table
Yeah, I couldn't really, I have no idea why I got away with it
Truly no idea
I used to have cookies, I had cookies every single morning for breakfast
I guess it's probably because you had five siblings
So they were just like, we can't fucking deal with like everybody's special accommodations
So we'll just throw a kid cuisine in the microwave to shut them up
Yeah, it was, that's what it was
It was like they, I think they gave up on trying to force it and they were like, I guess it's easier to just give this asshole what he wants
And that was sort of your life philosophy growing up entirely, not just foods related stuff
Right, so you could give into your boyfriend's every whim and hope that he just changes on his own like I did
Or you can try to force it
I will say
It's weird, you can look at fucking restaurant menus before you go to the restaurant
It's crazy that he'd be there, look at the menu and be like, we have to get up
Yeah, maybe he is vetoing before they get there
Okay
Yeah, I hope so
I will say my, I used to be anti-fish as our most picky eaters
The fishy smell sort of turned me off as a youth
And what got me into fish, which I recommend for people who are trying to get into fish is like
Like fish and chips, like fried fish, it's almost like as close as you can get to fried chicken without it being chicken
And like once you're in fried fish, you can start like eating grilled white fish and then you're trying salmon
And then you're trying sushi and it's like baby steps into that world
Yeah, and you can also, I think that's good advice too
Because you can find kind of like one adventurous cuisine that your boyfriend can tolerate and go all in on that
You know, if he's like, oh I can eat something at this Vietnamese place
And it's like, okay great, then I can go there and try everything on the menu
We can go there multiple times and I can keep on trying different things
Yeah
So that's one way
And also just fucking reach out to your friends who are adventurous eaters
Start going out to dinner with them and maybe your boyfriend will get FOMO and start coming with
Or FONO, the fear of missing out on noodles
I guess that's FOMON
Maybe he'll get FOMON or something
FOMO
Yeah, and then when you go to a Vietnamese restaurant, you can get FOMON
That's what I thought you were trying to do
The first one?
Forget it, it doesn't matter
It's fear of missing out on noodles, FOMON
That's a turdy now
Oh my god, what?
You had this earlier, you said like a course and the many courses
That's when I won the golden mic for this episode
How long did that eat after?
Because it was fucking about dinner
Yeah, well I said FOMON, fear of missing out on noodles, that's a comparable joke
And then I turned it into the FA, like an extra level
No, I got it, I said FA
I said FA, FONO, FOMO, I said FOMO
And that's the better one
FONON, what did we talk about?
No, I didn't say NON, now you're like, you're missing out on NON
No, I'm saying NON
Of course you don't get it, it's not what I said
Although FONON is pretty good actually, fear of missing out on NON
Yeah, that's a golden mic for me for coming up with FONON
Alright, let's take a break
Try to readjust the foam in Jake's home studio office
And we'll be back with more questions on the other side of these

Yeah right
Jake's been bragging about completing this two minute
Honestly like Buzzfeed light quiz

Sleep well
And we're back
Jake, do you have any?
Oh, it's a leather device
Mom, I'm coming
Gross
Yeah, yeah I do
I recently purchased a bathrobe
Now you were talking about not too long ago adding things to your shopping cart
Waiting a week before deciding to pull the trigger to see if you truly wanted them
And did I mention that a bathrobe was sitting there in that email?
Yeah, and then you were like, I think I'm gonna get it
So you did get the bathrobe
I bought it for myself for my birthday
That's another piece of unsolicited advice I have
If you want something, don't get it right away until a special occasion
Makes you feel nice
I bought it for myself for my birthday and it was cool, I got a birthday present
My only gift
But yeah, it's fucking...
It's great
Whenever I'm staying in a hotel, I love when there's a bathrobe
I get excited, I'm like, I can't wait to take a shower and I'm gonna change into the bathrobe
And it's just a very luxurious, relaxing thing to do
So is it made out of a towel?
Do you use it instead of a towel or do you use a towel to dry and then put on the robe?
I do, it's a lot less of a
Thorough dry, I'll like do a pat dry, kind of like a general towel situation
And then throw the robe on
You can be a little damp under the robe and then you dry over time
And it's like a towel material, yeah, it's terry cloth, it's got a cool little
Pattern on it, it's green and black
It's kind of hot, that's nice
Is it like a general towels chicken?
I'm trying to really fucking recommend something here
Like quality of life style shit
I'm trying to help people out there who might live
I'm down to learn more about it, I just thought it was fun
You're undercutting everything I say with these cheap jokes
These cheap jokes
We were talking about the Asian food earlier, so I thought it would be a fun call back
This is like my moment to talk about advice
The whole show is your moment to talk about advice, we've been doing this for eight years
It's just tacky for you to pile on here with your peanut gallery antics
This fucking small comedy
It soured the recommendation, I feel like people aren't going to buy a bathroom anymore
They will if it
Wendy, how long do you wear it? Does a robe have a shelf life?
Don't pan, it's too little too late
You're trying to ask a question, but you don't even give a shit
All you care about is making your fucking silly little quips to try to cut me down
Not cut you down, I thought you could join it
So yeah, when do you switch out of your robe, I guess
That's a good question
So you do like it
I like the late afternoon showers
When I say I go climbing after work, come home
The dream is I place an order for some food
I take a shower, the food arrives, post-shower
I'm in a robe
Then I get to relax in front of the TV and enjoy my dinner in my robe
You're eating a full meal in the robe
That's really indulgent, I've only done that two or three times
But when I do it feels great
You go to sleep in the robe?
No, no, no, it's way too thick for that
White robe?
No, I've already discussed the color of the robe
I said it was green and black, I said it was patterned
Why don't you pay attention?
I'm talking about important shit
Well, most hotel robes are white
Yeah, but I said what it was
I was thinking about the general towels chicken
What would that sound? What would that taste like?
That's a funny general towels
Yeah, that's what I said earlier
That's really good
I miss that
Thank you
I must have missed that
Oh, thanks
Do you have a recommendation for where to get a robe?
Or no plugs specifically yet?
I got mine from this company called OAS
And the robes are very stylish, cool looking
But I'm sure you can get a good robe anywhere
Alright, cool
Maybe we should get a robe sponsor
We should get these guys because I fucking love my robe
It's very specific
Where you buy your clothes, they don't make robes too
It has to be a specialty robes place
I think this place does make clothes
Oh really?
Yeah, they make bathing suits
They make these cool terry cloth shirts
I'll pop my robe into the chat
You can get one like it, but don't get the exact same
Oh, this is a night
I might do this specific robe
Just go under
Green and black pattern? You didn't say that
You can just look in there
What size did you get? Small, medium or LXL?
I think I got this one
I feel like with these kind of things
You want it to be a little on the tight side
You don't want to be swimming in it if it's XL
This is, I got the robe
Actually, I got five of them for all of our friends
Now we're the robe bros
This is fun
And it's only $680
I'm returning my robe
Returning it
Nice
Alright, cool, get a robe
Here's another question from another lady
And this lady is in Canada
I'm a 27-year-old woman working in the fast food industry
Let's call her Wendy
Nice
I recently got promoted as regional manager a few weeks ago
To look over the hiring and termination
But most of all to oversee the health and food safety procedures
Here's my problem
I've been in the files the other day and had to go to the washroom
My work has a co-ed bathroom
The toilet didn't flush after I did my business
So I opened the lid and found some porn in the water tank
Hmm?
Yeah
I panicked and just put it out of the way so the toilet can flush
My question is, should I just leave it there and make the toilet flushable
Or take it and find the person who owns it
Or even better, post it to the career app we have
Or take the person to come forward and get fired
Thanks for your guys' help
Love Wendy
I mean, it's possible that it's been there for a long time
So like, you know, you might not get anyone coming forward
Isn't it wet in there that tank?
How can a magazine survive generations in a toilet tank?
I feel like it's got to be fresh
I get it's also just so weird
There's such easier ways to find and have porn in the bathroom
Like bring your phone in there
Yeah
It's probably just the oldest employee there, right?
Who else is going to hide a porno in the toilet like it's 1968?
Yeah, that's true
You could probably look around your office and deduce who put the porno bag in there
Was it you?
Ron?
Ron's the 78-year-old pervert that works behind the counters
If there's someone named Ron, it was definitely there
Yeah, it wasn't like this 16-year-old tween that doesn't even realize that porn comes in magazines
Yeah
So, I mean, I guess if it were me, I would let sleeping dogs lie
That's what they say, right?
Yeah
Which means let this guy continue to hide his porno into the toilet area
And so that he can occasionally jerk it in the washroom on a break
Yeah, I mean, that's fucking nasty
It's not good to know that's happening
But also, it's not like I don't think that there's not really anything that you can do as a porn vigilante
All you can do is fix the toilet
That's the real issue that you were having
Toilet doesn't flush
The problem has actually now been solved
There's mystery, but it's necessarily a problem
She recently got promoted as regional manager
So she is a manager here and she does oversee the health and food safety procedures
Hmm, yeah, alright
Is it illegal to jerk it in a bathroom?
Um, it...
Yeah, it's a good question
It's probably right
Probably?
But you are there to piss and poop
Yeah, it's like, or is it a social code?
It's like...
If you're gonna jerk it, go to the bathroom
We fucking wrote a company handbook
Do we have it in hours?
I think page four, yeah, is sort of not jerking it in the bathroom
Yeah, I see that
Because then you're only like one step away from doing it at a shared urinal
And then you don't want to start dealing with that
Right, obviously
I mean, we have co-ed bathrooms at our offices
We wouldn't want anybody doing that in there
What happens if you find a fucking porno mag in the headgum east toilet
Where only four people work?
I guess then maybe...
That's a good question, framing it like that makes me...
I still doubt that I would fucking say anything
I would, but I would get rid of it
I would throw it away
So I feel like whoever had that in there, next time they went to use it
They would be like, I've been found out
So I shouldn't continue jerking off
And I would periodically check
Or you could replace...
That's what I'm thinking
You put a note in there
This was hot
Why don't you meet me here after work to relive your porno fantasy
Because you want to be able to catch this person
White-handed
You could say this was hot to see
Yeah, I see
Meet me here after work
And then the person shows up thinking it's going to be some sort of circle jerk
Or the very least a line jerk
That's when two people are sort of cranking it
In the office bathroom
And so that turns that person on
And then it sort of leads them to there
And then you can fire them in a group setting
I actually don't hate that
What I was also thinking was you can just
Go whole hog on thinking you know who it is
And write the note that is like
No more porn in the bathroom, Ron
And then like
Ron will stop
And if it wasn't Ron
Then whoever it was will be like
Wow, I almost got caught out
That's too close for comfort
I'm not going to do that anymore
Thank God they think it's Ron
Do you replace the magazine with the note
Or do you just write it with lipstick on the magazine
I would
I would keep the magazine
Write the note over
Like the pornographic image
So like whoever it is
They open it up
And they are expecting to see the porn
But instead it's the note
That's cool, it's like a center fold
And it sort of just rolls out of the mag
Remember the center folds
Did you ever have a playboy when you were a kid
I didn't but some of my friends
Dads had them
And that was sort of exciting to find
But I could never
By the time I was 18
To buy the playboys we already had the internet
So we had to like
Stumble upon them as a tween
My death thread is a center fold
Da-na-na-na-na-na
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
It's a death threat
Yeah, so you leave them sort of a
Pretty nasty note in this
Yeah, death threat
Not really a great move for the manager
You know
That's true
Newly promoted first order of business
Is threaten my employees with death
For something we're not even sure
Da-na-na-na-na-na
Yeah
That's right

But I'm not sure that it's better than the triangle
So we're going to find out
We'll only know after it's too late
We just have to sort of trust our gut
Yeah, it feels like there's something
I need something above my head
You need to hang a robe
You need to just basically put the robe over everything
Cool, you're wearing the phone thing like a hat now
I'm wearing it like a hat now
And I think this is kind of
This is really where it needs to be
But obviously it's hard to balance it
Yeah
Where's the other side balancing
If you're holding like a hat
I'll take a picture of this one
So we see
Alright, picture taken
People will see
What sort of sacrifice you made
To record this one
Because now the phone is balanced on my
On my computer and the top of my head
It's creating kind of a bridge
That's really good, actually
This might be the best one yet
I think this is probably going to be the one that sounds the best
Which is, you know, this is tough to recreate
Yeah
It's hard to balance it
And it's hard on your neck, I'm sure
Because it's a little extra weight while you talk
A little bit, yeah
The other is just like unrelated to all of this
I'm on like a chair
That's breaking
So it's all
So tenuous
Plastic desk
Breaking chair, phone balanced on my head
Yeah, it's like this is when we should be
Leveling up
And it seems like you got fired or something
And we're trying to like make things happen
On our own in like this new studio
Apartment that you rented in Queens or something
It's all back to
The towel fort days
That feels like
If anything, the towel fort was
Ahead of where you are now in that room
That's true
Which was ten years ago
Getting worse
But we digress
Of course, yes
That was also sort of a
Double entendre
We're digressing from the conversation
But also we're digressing in the grand scheme
That's really good
Almost golden mic worthy
You hadn't
So close
Why did I not get one
Because you didn't get it
Phone on or whatever
Phone on
If you're missing out on noodles
And you got the golden mic earlier
For a joke you can't even fucking remember
It's like that was
Courses
As
The foam starts to slide down your head
I guess
You deserve the golden mic
I need it
That's all you have at this point
I need this, I really do
We got another Canadian
This might be an all Canadian episode
Whoa, that's cool
This is a 20 year old Canadian
Male
A 20 year old Canadian male
Exciting
I feel like we've called somebody Wayne Gretzky
A lot because he's the first Canadian I know
Drake, Drake's Canadian
The guy from Sum41
Derek
Derek from Sum41 writes
There's this super cute girl
That comes into work pretty regularly
Because I work at a coffee shop and it's not been super busy
So whenever she comes in
We get to flirting and last week I asked her out for drinks
I ended up having to postpone our date
Because I had a bunch of school work
To which she replied
I might regret asking you
But how old are you
I figured I'd round up a few months
And I told her I was 21
We ended up grabbing a few drinks
A couple days later and it turns out that she's
24
It's become a bit of a joke between us
That I pretend I don't know any bands formed
In the 90s and I figured she has no idea
How the internet works
We've been out a few times since then
And while I had my fair share of opportunities
To tell her I'm not actually 21 yet
I've kept it quiet
She keeps mentioning it mostly in jest
She's creeping on a 21 year old
And I can sense that she's a little insecure about it
Have I screwed myself? How do I tell her now?
Do I need to forge a new birth certificate?
I can't help but feel that coming clean
Might make me look
Super immature and that a four year
Age difference might be too much for her
But is waiting to tell her the truth
Even worse
It would be difficult to celebrate my 21st birthday soon
And have her find out that I lied from the beginning
Much love
Derek from SUM41
Okay
It seems like earlier is better
Like as soon as possible
Or do you wait until you're actually 21
So she's like, okay well at least
Now you're 21
And that's fine
How soon will you be 21?
It seems like it's a couple months away
Took another photo of you
Why?
The foam is now starting to encroach
Into the frame and it's
Much more aesthetically interesting
It looks like it's weighing
You down and it's starting to
Soft
You're getting
Pushed under the weight of the foam
I wonder if my
I'm gonna just kind of arrange my hair
And beard also to be
A little sound
Talking
Into the sides of my hair
Looks nice
Yeah do you tell her now or do you tell her
After you turn 21 then she's like
Alright you lied to me but now you are
Actually 21
Yeah
I guess it's interesting because like
When you tell someone earlier
Your relationship isn't that solid
And it's easier for her to
Call it off
But also
It is a lie
And you could also
Be more detrimental in the future
It'll feel bigger the longer it goes on
Right
But he can't keep it alive forever because
Sooner or later they're gonna celebrate a birthday
Yeah but and then she'll be like
Oh finally you're 22 and then it'll
Then he's gonna have to say
Actually
Now I'm 21
You could pretend like he didn't know
Oh my god, wait a minute
96, 97, yeah
You gotta be shitting me
I can't believe it
I guess I repeated the second grade
Or some weird shit like that
My parents lied to me
I mean I feel like the difference between
20 and 24 is not
That huge
Like I'm three years older than Jill
Well the older you get the less of a big deal it is
So like 20 to 24
Is bigger than like 30 and 34
Right but in Canada
I feel like the big thing is really like
You wanna be able to get a drink
With somebody
Like
Isn't the drinking age 18 in Canada
I think it's 19
Right so either way you're good
Yeah
So it's not as big of a deal as it is
In America
So do you say it right away?
What would you do?
I think I would
It's really hard to come clean
I guess I would
Ah
I'm trying to put myself in this situation
For real what would I do?
Imagine you're not under a foam ceiling
Right now
I would do it because I would be more afraid
Of the
Of it being worse in the future
Especially if you like her
If you actually like her then I think you have to
And
The difference between 20 to 21
Is not huge
It's like the difference
Between 24 to 21
Yeah and it's really just a few months
And you could also
You don't have to be like I'm 20
You can also just be like
Actually I turned 21
In 3 months
Right well that's what I'm saying
If you wait till your birthday you can be like
You know how I told you I was 21
And she'd be like yeah
And you could be like I am
And then she'd be like oh what
And then you're like alright
I think that's funny
I think it's great
I am 21 now
Which is pretty good
And you're like I sort of always round up
So I'm turning 22
In 6 months
And then I'll be 22 from that 6 month mark
To the 6 month mark afterwards
So that's what you would do
You would wait till your birthday
Yeah wait till the birthday
But that's just me
I'm just obscene
This is like
Everybody
Do you think Eminem recorded that album in a room like this
With a piece of foam on his head
No of course not
It does not
There's no way he was
Sitting in a room
An echo-y cavernous room with a foam on his head going
Na na na na na
Na na na na
No way
Absolutely
Na na na na
Na na na na
So you're saying right away
And I'm saying wait till you're 21
And she can't break up with you on your birthday
At the next opportune moment
You just say oh by the way
I'm turning 21
I'm turning 21
Did I say he was 21?
I'm turning 21
And if you've misheard that
I'm mad at you for not listening to me
You often like just ignore the shit that I say
You sort of turn it back
You don't want to hear
That's your problem
And then if you're mad at her
And then she's mad at you
You go let's just call this whole thing off
It's my birthday
Let's squash the beef
You're calling the fight off
You create a fight
To counteract her fight
And then you say let's just squash the beef
Let's call it off
Yeah
Let us know
Please
We need more follow up pups
And let's actually read it this time
For real

Yesterday
Oh, my act, I seem so far away
Now I get it from a podcast show
Oh, I believe
In these two guys
Suddenly
I'm not half the chipmunk I used to be
There's a Starbucks hanging over me
Oh, Yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go
I don't know, I need advice
I said something weird
Now I long for a mirror
Yesterday
D&D was such an easy game to play
Now Nyak needs a place to hide away
Oh, I believe
And you go
Why she had to go
You would know I need advice
I said something weird
Now I long for a mirror
Yesterday
I didn't know what to do
In came the advice of these two Jews
Oh, I believe
And if I were you
